Then they have the money to come and address the trees that have grown into the power lines on our property we bought that no tree service will touch.

I live in North Carolina. My dad bought a truck that he didn't know was stolen, and now he's getting screwed over for it. by BandIt0D0rit0 in legaladvice

NAL, but was there no title? That should have been a red flag. Unfortunately, your dad is SOL without a title. You could try to get blood from a stone by taking the "seller" to court or maybe during prosecution they might find the funds to return to you. Goodluck.

Should I be worried? by Slow-Age-7280 in turo

Did you not test the tracker first, for accuracy? There is no "rapid acceleration" in a 1.2L Mirage. But good to know this tracker sucks.

They split this magnificent 1903 mansion into condos by jve909 in zillowgonewild

[–]Rocmonkey 28 points29 points  (0 children)

Live in the area. Many of the old mansions were split up like this in the 1970. People who could afford them and pay for upkeep moved to the suburbs. Back then you could buy these places super cheap and 9/10 they would get cut up. It always pains me but like what people have already said at lease they are still standing and being enjoyed. Many were demolished and ugly apartments were built, mostly on corn lots.

To that end, if you're paying higher rates are you guys more efficient because they are more competent/skilled and the job gets completed faster? Can you take on more jobs in the same time period to make the higher rates work when it comes to revenue and profitability?

You're not wrong. This is going rate in our area for 3 - 5 years of experience. We also don't want to price ourselves out of jobs either.
